Extra High Voltage Bushings

POC ® (Paper-Oil-Capacitor) 345 kV – 500 kV

Through customer-focused innovation, POC Series II 345 kV bushings have been re-engineered to provide a higher level of performance in EHV transformers and reactor applications. PCORE’s 345 kV bushings have been certified to the highest seismic performance level as specified in IEEE-STD-693-2005. Current ratings are available from 800 amperes to 4000 amperes. POC Series II 345 kV bushings have a minimum oil level (current transformer pocket) of 23 inches. These units can be mounted vertically and tilted up to 60 degrees from the vertical without the use of an external reservoir. POC Series II 345 kV bushings have the required strike distance to meet ANSI/IEEE electrical requirements up through 10,000 feet above sea level. For higher elevations, porcelain is available with increased strike distance. A “smart numbering system” has been developed for the POC Series II line. The catalog number identifies the bushing type (POC), BIL rating (e.g., 1175), porcelain glaze (“G” for gray), and amperage (e.g., 0800 would equal 800A). Special bushing requirements are identified by a suffix. PCORE ® POC ® bushings listed in the table have system voltage classes of 345 kV through 500 kV and are the bushings normally used for EHV transformer or reactor applications. All EHV bushings are available in BIL ratings to match bushing characteristics to their application. The POC Series II 345 kV bushings have been standardized around the 1175 BIL rating, but the 1050 BIL rating is still available upon request. The 500 kV bushings are available in the POC style 1300 BIL rating or the 65 Series style 1550 BIL and 1675 BIL ratings, plus the 1425 BIL rating is still available upon request. Large shield and spade assemblies are available for bottom connecting the transformer winding lead to the bushing.
